Making Sammi Proud

This was a big week and a big weekend. On the heels of getting his first tooth, Charlie's grandma Sammi came to visit and in honor of her first day with him he rolled over for the first time! As if that wasn't enough, he went from spitting out all of his rice cereal to opening his mouth and swallowing it - a huge step toward eating the steak we know he craves. And we advanced to the faster nipple on his bottle. He better slow down or we'll be packing him up for college in the fall.

He had fun with Sammi as he ran all over creation with us shopping - mostly for him. He was a very good boy so Sammi decided she would actually come back in May. Yay!!

We have done some major growing...

Charlie had his 4 month doctor's visit this past Friday. He should be a professional grower!! He weighs 16lbs 13 oz, which puts him in the 81st percentile for weight and he is 27 inches long, which puts him in the 98th percentile for height. Where did he come from??? He wasn't a big fan of his vaccines but he handled it like a champ.

We also had a major breakthrough yesterday - literally. Charlie's first tooth broke the surface! His bottom right middle tooth is just grazing the surface. I guess that makes all the drooling worth it.
